Saw this yesterday and I plan on seeing it again in a few days. I'm betting that like a lot of films that were divisive, flopped, were panned, or shrugged off upon initial release, this one is going to be regarded as a masterpiece in a few decades. Or if not that, at least a cult favorite, which is kind of how The Fountain is seen these days. I just learned that the emoji movie has a B on cinemascore. The human race is doomed..... I will take The Emoji movie anytime over Mother! |

I'll probably rent this one. It sounds like It Comes at Night. Seriously mis-promoted as horror, but a bit of a think piece. I like those type of films, usually.

Mother! is what happens when the director is dating the star! That F score is well deserved. You have no idea what you are talking about. They weren't dating when the movie was shot. If you can't cite details from the movie itself to talk about its score, your opinion is less than useless. |

I hated It Comes at Night. Mother was strange. Not enjoyable, but it passed rule one-holding my attention. No thinking about what I was doing after the film. No wondering about the end. I was totally kept in time to the events on screen. It only works as a biblical metaphor. The poet puts the Crystal in its place & The house & everything revives. God is already off creating as we see the man (Adam) arrive. He is an intrusion to mother-she awakes to find the poet has not been to bed, finding him wityh thed man who now has a wound over his ribs. The wife arrives. 2 sons warring with one another it was a God craving praise ignoring the planet. The Poet needed adoration so much, craved it that nothing else mattered.
In the end when mother did what she had done in prior existences, when she was but a burned, dying thing that still loved him, He took her love, all she had left. Her heart so he could place the pure Crystal in its place to recreate the world.
It was all I could do not to cry An incredible movie |

So in other words, it's a pretentious pile of shit. Spoken like a true knuckle-dragging know-nothing. Idiots like you are the reason why the film industry devotes so much of its energy and money making movies that appeal only to people with the intellect of hormonal teens. Only an anti-intellectual moron would actually get angry when confronted with a movie which requires that you actually think about what you've seen. Good riddance. You don't deserve either of them. Stick to Transformers and other things with lots of explosions. That's more your level. You're pretty hard on this guy considering that the movie is really bombing, and that the 'hated it' section on IMDB had more "worst movie that I've ever seen' comments than any movie I've ever read about there--here's a classic example: "There was a mouse in the theater that I found infinitely more interesting than this movie" |

Also, whether a movie does well at the box-office or not says absolutely nothing about the quality of said movie. |

Dude I would watch IT Comes at Night 1000 times over this movie. Eh it comes at night needed direction. It needed a lot of things but that would have been a start. I was excited to see It Comes at Night for a while then instead of the amazing horror movie I had been promised I got some vague hackneyed end of the world wanna be art house yawn fest. Get Out was overrated but compared to It Bores at Night GO was the Exorcist Meets Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Also Get Out did a brilliant job of showing how hypocritical the privileged white liberal crowd is and the silly libs missed that they were the punchline.  . In conclusion It Bores at Night is shit. Mother was worse. |

Thanks for the link. Pretty much had that conclusion but it still doesn't make the film less of a waste of talent. Really pretentious and boring while not delivering what was advertised in the trailer. |
